Barbs Fastened Between tlte Wires. 




END VIEW OF BARB. 

liicensed Under all tbe Patents of the Wasbbarn & Moen JTIanafactariDg 
Company and I. L. Ell^v^ood & Co. 



Of the different Four Point Barb Wire devices, having one or more of the points 
pass between the cable wires, this is by far the hest and lightest in weight, being but 
slightly over one pound to the rod. A glance at the cut will show this, but an examina 
tion of the sample will demonstrate it fully. The wires used in the barbs pass around 
both the cables, as well as between them, so that the barbs are securely fastened around 
both the wires in the cable, as well as passing between them, which locks them securely 
in place. 

Price — Painted, 10 cents per pound, net.

We wish to call your special notice to this new invention. We consider it the best 
wire stretcher in the market. It is strongly made, easily operated and very durable. 
We can recommend it unqualifiedly. Do not be put off with any other. To remove the 
tension, invert the machine and slack back enough to let the Pawl drop.

Barb Eence. 




THE BUCK-THORN OR RAILROAD. 

The Buck-Thorn Fencing is not wire, and no wire enters into its composition. It is 
a solid strip of steel, rolled, not drawn, with short, triangular points, one inch apart. It 
is twisted so that these points are presented at four inches apart from every direction — 
right and left,- above and below. It is very strong, and presents the largest possible 
surface to view. 

The barbs cannot possibly become loosened, while there are no cracks, crevices or 
joints to catch and hold rainwater, dew or moisture, formed by condensation; therefore, 
the fence cannot be damaged or destroyed by rust. 

The barbs are short and lance-shaped, so that there is no danger of injury to stock 
from coming in contact with them. They will prick and scratch, but never tear the 
skin, because their form always tends to draw out of the flesh instead of into it. It is 
well knowm that the sensation of pain is at the surface of the skin, hence the smart 
thrust or prick of a thorn (where there is no danger of tearing) is all that is required. 
No wounds are made, consequently no loss of cattle in the southwest from putrefying 
sores in which flies deposit their eggs. 

The barbs are numerous and wide at their base, and the surface of the strand is 
broad. These three most desirable properties render the fence easily seen by animals' 
and are of great value in preventing accidents from collision.

The Buck-Thorn Fencing averages about fourteen feet to the pound, and costs no 
more than the best of the ordinary barbed wires, while its superiority cannot be ques- 
tioned. It is very much stronger, is plainly seen ly animals, and will last many years 
longer than any other barbed or wooden fence ever made. It is most effectual in its 
protection, and is not cruel or harsh. It is easy to put up and tighten. No barbed 
fencing ever made equals The Buck- Thorn.

No razors in the world are made with such perfect exactness, and by our process we 
obtain the utmost condensation of the steel, ivhich gives perfect equability in temper and 
texture ; enabling tis to guarantee each razor to shave with ease the most difficult beards, 
even those upon which other razors have failed. 

Each razor is finely finished, and stamped with the following Trade Mark, to 
imitate which is a fraud :
